Chapter 49 Feng Laogui
After drawing the formation of the robe, Song Qingming was not in a hurry to hand it over to Shi Mofeng. He waited for a few days before bringing the robe to the outside of his tent. After sending a voice transmission, Shi Mofeng soon came out.
Seeing Song Qingming coming, Shi Mofeng said with a smile, "Song Xiaoyou came to see me, but the formation has been drawn?"
"I have lived up to Senior Shi's trust and successfully drawn two sets of formations. Please check them." Song Qingming said, and put the golden robe in his hand.
Shi Mofeng looked at the two extra talismans on the robe he had refined, and was very satisfied with the two exquisite formations drawn by Song Qingming. He happily put the robe away.
After completing this task, Song Qingming came to the outside of Feng Laogui's tent again. Seeing that there seemed to be a figure walking in the tent, Song Qingming was happy in his heart. This old ghost finally ended his retreat.
After hearing about the black market in Bailong Mountain from Shi Mofeng a few days ago, Song Qingming came to find Feng Laogui after completing his daily tasks the next day. Unfortunately, Feng Laogui was in seclusion practicing.
When a cultivator is in seclusion practicing, he hates being disturbed by others. Song Qingming had to ask for help, so he naturally did not dare to send a voice transmission invitation directly. Song Qingming came to visit for several days in a row, but he could only return empty-handed when he saw the closed tent. Fortunately, his luck finally changed today.
After Song Qingming sent a voice transmission, there was a noise in the tent soon, and an ugly man with a scar on his face came out. It was Feng Laogui.
Feng Laogui was ugly and liked to haggle. He was not very popular in the camp. He usually went out to perform tasks or practiced in the camp. He rarely came out to walk with other cultivators.
Song Qingming saw that he was full of joy. His magic power seemed to have improved a lot compared to the last time they met. He must have been practicing in seclusion these days and his skills have improved a lot, so he was so happy.
"Congratulations, Brother Feng. I haven't seen you for more than half a month. Brother Feng's skills have improved a lot." Song Qingming bowed to Feng Laogui and congratulated him.
"No, no, Brother Song, you're welcome."
Feng Laogui smiled and looked at Song Qingming, returned the greeting, and invited Song Qingming into the tent.
Feng Laogui's tent was quite clean. There was nothing else except a few futons and some tables and chairs.
After sitting down, Song Qingming stated his purpose straight away. When Feng Laogui heard that he wanted to go to Bailong Mountain, his face changed slightly and he said:
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, Brother Song. Bailong Mountain is not easy to enter. It's not peaceful there recently. I haven't been there for a few years. I don't know who is the big mouth who told people that I've been to Bailong Mountain. Is that a place that ordinary people can go to?"
Song Qingming immediately heard the greed in his words. This Feng Laogui is really a man who can win everything. It's hard to get anything if you don't pay a price when dealing with him.
"Don't worry, Brother Feng, I won't let you go in vain. As long as you promise to take me there once, these talismans will be regarded as your hard work fee." After Song Qingming finished speaking, he took out a few talismans and placed them in front of Feng Laogui.
These talismans are all mid-grade talismans, and they cost more than a dozen spirit stones in the market. In the Floating Cloud Mountains, for the Feiyun Guards who are short of supplies, these mid-grade talismans are more valuable than those in the market.
To be honest, even Song Qingming, who has no shortage of talismans, felt a little painful when he took out so many mid-grade talismans. If he hadn't been asking for information about the foundation-building pill, he wouldn't have been so generous.
"Fellow Daoist Song, what are you doing? You are too polite. We are all so familiar with each other. If you really want to go, I am willing to take you there. But now we still have to perform our mission here. We will return to Guiyunfang in a month, and then you can come to my cave in Guiyun Mountain."
Looking at the golden talismans in front of him, Feng Laogui grinned, and his attitude immediately changed drastically, reaching out to take the talismans from Song Qingming's hand.
Unexpectedly, Song Qingming's hand flashed with green light, and most of the talismans were put into the storage bag, leaving only one to Feng Laogui.
"This talisman is a deposit, you take it first, don't worry, Fellow Daoist Feng, when we arrive at Bailong Mountain, the rest of the talismans will be presented with both hands, please don't be offended."
Feng Laogui took the talisman, shook his head and said: "Fellow Daoist Song, I just have something, I want to ask you for help, if you are willing to help, you don't have to give me the rest of the talismans, what do you think."
"Please speak frankly, I don't know if I can help you." Song Qingming was interested when he heard it, but he didn't know what Feng Laogui wanted him to do, so he didn't dare to agree directly.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Song. Although this matter is a little dangerous, it is not difficult. I originally planned to go with another fellow Daoist. If Fellow Daoist Song can help, the chances of success will definitely increase a lot."
Song Qingming wanted to back out when he heard that it was a little dangerous, and was thinking about how to refuse.
Seeing that Song Qingming seemed to be a little hesitant, Feng Laogui rolled his eyes and continued:
"I won't hide it from you, Brother Song. A month ago, I saw a top-grade white jade flower in a mountain. I didn't expect there was a high-level flame rat there. I tried to pick it secretly several times, but was discovered by the demon rat and chased by him. This time I plan to call for help, kill the demon beast first, and then pick the spiritual medicine. I wonder if Brother Song is interested in helping. Don't worry, after killing the demon beast, you two will share the materials on the demon beast. I just want the pearl spiritual medicine."
Song Qingming was moved when he heard about the white jade flower. This old ghost Feng is really lucky. Top-grade white jade flowers are rare in the Floating Cloud Mountains. Spiritual medicines like white jade flowers are difficult to cultivate. It is difficult to buy those over a hundred years old in Guiyunfang. One plant costs at least seventy or eighty spiritual stones.
Song Qingming asked, "Who is the other fellow Taoist? How is his cultivation?"
"Fellow Taoist Jia, you should have heard of him. His cultivation is the same as mine, at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and his magical powers are not inferior to mine. In addition, I have a middle-grade puppet on me. If the four of us in the middle stage of Qi Refining take action, I estimate that this matter has a 70% to 80% chance of success." Feng Laogui hurriedly explained.
"Brother Feng, why don't you ask a few masters in the late stage of Qi Refining in the camp to help? Wouldn't this be safer?"
"Hehe, first of all, if you want a few Taoists in the late stage of Qi Refining to take action, I'm afraid you will have to pay more spirit stones. This little thing is not worth it. Secondly, they are not that familiar with me. If Captain Lu knows about this, it will be difficult for me to end it." Feng Laogui said with a bitter smile.
As Song Qingming expected, the other person was indeed at a similar level to them. There were many masters in the late stage of Qi Refining in the camp. The reason why Feng Laogui did not dare to ask them for help was that he was afraid that after killing the monster, the other party would turn against him and try to snatch the spiritual objects, and he would not be able to stop them.
In the final analysis, the gap between the late stage of Qi Refining masters and the mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators was too big. Without the same strength constraints, they had no sense of security in their cultivation when they acted together.
Under normal circumstances, a seventh-level Qi Refining cultivator could at least beat three or four sixth-level Qi Refining cultivators. Although there was only one level difference in cultivation, after breaking through the late stage of Qi Refining, the cultivators could release their spiritual consciousness, and their perception ability would be significantly stronger than that of the mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators. They could also sense danger in advance during the battle, and their combat ability would be greatly improved compared to the mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators.
